I go and come with a strange liberty in Nature, a part of herself." Thoreau lived in his Walden camp but two years, 1845-1847, and, as his narrative clearly shows, by no means exiled himself from home and companions. His hermitage was within easy walking distance of Concord, and, though his seclusion meant privacy at times, he was by no means debarred from society. The life in the woods was a characteristic expression of his stout independence of condition since the act was in a way unique, it transferred something of its unique property to the book which recorded it, and the book is more closely identified with Thoreau's fame, has done more to give him distinction, than any other of his writings. This story, which is considered one of the greatest works of American literature, is a true ecological pamphlet whose content focuses on a much needed return to nature in every sphere of our life. This edition has a beautiful layout with a font size designed to make it easy to read.
